Strangely, I’m in the same boat.

I was educated as to what this was here, and I’m dumber for it now. Tik Tok shouldn’t be referenced at all, it’s trash and always has been trash.

Edit: Also, this is clearly artificially upvoted. This really shouldn’t be allowed here.

When the world goes dark, sometimes we have to become lights. We may be dim by ourselves, but enough of us can change things.

We may not be able to fix a dying government, or a world that’s largely forgotten the horrors of war, but we can help today in our community, and locally.

It may not be enough, but it’s something. Maybe those of us aware enough to be frozen in frustration, disappointnent, and even fear by today’s events need this the most. Become a light to someone, some people, or many.

I guess this is a journey of a thousand steps sort of thing, which aims to avoid the death by a thousand cuts.

Voldemort could have easily been killed with a gun.

What a complete piece of human garbage.

Yeah, this person’s logic makes no sense. This is a solid argument for men retiring earlier.

Personally, I’d say it’s probably best if it’s just the same for everyone.

Yeah, this seems backwards… Women tend to live longer than men.

I mean, most of us will vote for ANYTHING over Biden. I said thing, not person. I’ll vote for a cantaloupe over Trump.

So this idea does, in fact, have merit.

It is, and it isn’t… People love drama, and nothing about Trump’s stance is based on tradition or stability.

The right replacement could theoretically sweep the election. I just don’t trust the DNC with this… So I guess I agree with you in the end.

Honestly… An unknown challenger from EITHER side may actually sweep this election. Both candidates are hated by their constituents more than any other president I’ve seen in living memory.

Trump has the Republicans by the balls, but Biden doesn’t. I fully support this, if the right candidate can be found. The DNC won’t choose the right candidate, though… They are incompetent idiots.

Her lack of oversight is one of the only things many of us will ever remember her for. She set all women back 50 years by not stepping down. That’s part of her legacy now, and it always will be.

Her decision is a lesson for all those who will listen. We need to stop gambling with the future of our country. The best decision for everyone always needs to be put forward, and even the best people need to step down, if needed, to preserve and secure progress.

Seriously, they are so far behind their conservative counterparts is not even funny. They need to hire better PR specialists, and marketing teams.

It’s almost like it was a stupid fucking decision in the first place to make Biden, Obama’s embarrassing baggage, run for president.

So many of us fought this, and so many of us now hate the democratic party for this. They get zero sympathy from me at this stage.

I’m voting against Trump in this election just like I did in the last election, but after the conservatives retire the narcissistic criminal, all bets are off.

Corrupt doesn’t even begin to describe it these days. They ruled recently that they are legally allowed to accept bribes, so long as the bribe comes after the decision is made.

The laws of the United States of America are literally for sale by conservative judges. This breach of justice is actively dismantling a cornerstone of our countries successful history.

Oh, the irony, that the “conservative” party is the one radically destroying the highest court in America. Their supporters can wave all the flags they want this week, but what they represent is actively destroying this country.

It’s FOR the people BY the people, not for the highest bidder. at least, that’s how it used to be before Trump’s presidency.

::laughs in Ark: Survival Evolved::

Yeah, that’s about right. Not voting is just as bad as voting for the wrong person. There’s this giant chunk of America that’s sleepwalking everyone else into chaos.

There are few large countries in the world where this isn’t the case. Nationalism, in general, is absolutely a cult.

This isn’t even a joke… Like, I keep hearing my conservative family members express that they can’t vote for “someone with dementia”. Glossing past Trump’s many, many, many senior moments, it comes down to the fact the president is supported by an entire cabinet.

If Biden gets poo brain, he’s going to rely on his cabinet. If Trump continues down his poo brain path, he will never rely on a cabinet (especially since it’s full of yes-men). He will just let the dimentia drive him, just like he did in his first term.

E.g. Airports in the 1700s, convincing everyone covid isn’t that bad prior to a vaccine, posting “white power” to his Twitter, tear gassing protesters for a Photo OP where he holds a Bible upside-down. I could go on, and on, and on…

But sure, let’s all pretend Biden’s old man brain is a real serious problem. Because sometimes he… ::checks notes:: falls on stairs, and fumbles words.

These clowns voted for fucking George W. Bush, by the way.

Yup, I agree. That’s a really big “just”, though. I’d rather watch a poorly edited video that’s honest, than a high end video that glosses over major defects and difficiencies. I mean, let’s call it what it is, Marques makes ads.

I’ve never actually seen an ad in Windows… Like, literally ever. The worst I’ve seen is Windows trying to trick me into making edge my default browser.

If I believed all the articles on Lemmy, every part of the OS now has embedded ads, and the OS itself is recording everything I ever do against my will and without my knowledge.
